    TBH the differences between different gunks are marginal at best. (Although paste > pad in virtually all cases, due to layer thickness)

    In fact Toothpaste is better than AS3...

    The advantage of the Arctic Silver pastes is that they don't dry out, crack and fail as heat transfer media.

    Just make sure you use a very thin, even layer and you'll be fine.
